Welcome to the Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village in Guizhou Province, China, the largest Miao ethnic settlement in the world. Comprising more than ten natural villages connected along the lush green mountainsides, this destination serves as an open-air museum of indigenous ethnic history, culture, and photography.

Magical Night View (“Spirited Away” Style): At dusk (around 19:30), thousands of warm lights illuminate the hillsides simultaneously, creating a fairytale landscape often compared by global travellers to the famous animated film.
